Clubs put best foot forward in Cup tilt

With the half-way mark finally reached, tonight’s foray into the President’s Cup presents Toowoomba Hockey’s finals front-runners with a chance to put their best foot forward for the second half of the season.

The women sit out the round which means that the men’s battle against Ipswich’s best will be the marquee event of the night.

Norths take on North Ipswich with a point to prove after receiving a drumming at the hands of Newtown last week.

The Toowoomba side were taken to task 7-1, but tonight they have an opportunity to make amends and get back on track.

The other tie of the round sees the side who put the points on them last week take on Wests.

Newtown’s big win announced their intentions to retain their championship crown this year after a mixed start.

But their opponents Wests won’t be ready to roll over.

The Ipswich side have had ample time to rest after their 3-0 loss to North Ipswich on May 7.

This time out they will be looking to redeem themselves against one of the leagues heavyweights when they face-off tonight.
